"Checkin is by phone; they send you a code . Our code changed every day at 11am. unfortunately while we were gone. They do not send you notice or a new code. You figure out your code does not work when you return from a day and evening out. You then stand in the pouring rain at 1am trying to contact company but the call in center to get a code is closed for the evening. This all became to much."
